Boston, MA — Jan. 20, 2026 — Nicsa, a premier association connecting all facets of the asset and wealth management industry, announced the formation of its Digital Assets Committee, a new member-led forum designed to help firms navigate the rapidly evolving digital asset landscape.

The Digital Assets Committee brings together senior leaders from across asset management, wealth management, custody, technology, legal, consulting, and market infrastructure firms to strengthen industry understanding and support responsible adoption of digital asset innovations. The Committee’s mission is to advance education, best practices, and collaborative dialogue around emerging trends including tokenization, market structure, custody and settlement, regulation, operational resilience, and platform development.

“The formation of the Digital Assets Committee reflects Nicsa’s continued evolution and our commitment to serving the asset and wealth management industry where growth, innovation, and complexity intersect,” said Jim Fitzpatrick, President of Nicsa. “As firms accelerate their focus on next-generation products, modern distribution models, and transformative technologies, this Committee provides a critical forum for collaboration, education, and practical insight. By convening industry leaders around digital assets, we are reinforcing Nicsa’s strategic direction to support members in the highest-growth areas shaping the future of our industry.”

Founding Member Firms

The Digital Assets Committee launched with participation from the following 28 founding firms:

Purpose and Industry Impact

The Committee serves as a strategic resource for Nicsa members actively building or refining digital asset capabilities. Through structured education, peer exchange, and thought leadership, members will explore practical use cases—such as tokenized securities, stablecoins, and digital cash—and address regulatory, operational, and risk considerations critical to the asset and wealth management industry.

Planned work includes best-practice guides, industry surveys, webinars, and working groups focused on priority areas such as product development, distribution, regulation, custody, interoperability, and operational resilience.

Membership Update

Due to overwhelming interest and strong early engagement across the asset and wealth management industry, the Digital Assets Committee is temporarily in a soft close as Nicsa channels this momentum into focused coordination and strategic direction. The level of enthusiasm surrounding the Committee underscores its importance and positions it for continued growth. Nicsa expects to reopen the Committee to additional members in the coming months as this next phase accelerates.
